I Was Set Up at the Very Start and Ended Up With a CEO Wife! - Chapter 2:
Chapter 2: Great Love System
It was now 12:00 noon.
Xia Feng glanced at the bright sunlight outside the window, then looked down at the soft, limp Liu Ruyan in his arms, feeling completely content.
Right now, Liu Ruyan truly didn’t want to move even a single finger. Her whole body hung weakly against him, like she had no bones.
“Get up. I’ll carry you to take a shower. Otherwise, you’ll feel uncomfortable being all sticky.”
“Mm… no… I don’t want to… no strength…” Liu Ruyan murmured like a spoiled kitten, burying her face into his chest and refusing to move.
Xia Feng laughed.
“It’s fine, I’ll help you.”
Without waiting for her to object, he scooped her up in a princess carry and walked into the bathroom.
The sound of running water echoed.
Xia Feng was genuinely attentive, carefully helping her wash.
Liu Ruyan kept her eyes closed the whole time, letting him handle everything. Her beautiful face remained flushed from beginning to end.
This feeling… was far too embarrassing.
By the time they finished in the bathroom, the hotel staff had already delivered two brand-new sets of clothes, from innerwear to outerwear, everything complete.
Fortunately, this hotel belonged to the Liu Group. One phone call was all it took to have everything prepared.
Xia Feng glanced at the clothes. One set was casual wear for himself, and the other was a standard office outfit. A black pencil skirt and a white silk blouse, clearly Liu Ruyan’s style.
He quickly put on his own clothes, then patiently helped Liu Ruyan get dressed.
The process itself was another kind of scenery.
Although Liu Ruyan had regained some strength, she still moved like a puppet, allowing Xia Feng to help her into the blouse, button it up, and then slide her into the tight skirt.
By the time everything was done, it was almost noon.
Standing in front of the mirror, Liu Ruyan had completely returned to her usual image as the aloof, untouchable CEO.
The tailored office outfit perfectly highlighted her curvy figure. Her long hair flowed smoothly down her back, and her stunning face was now adorned with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Cold. Reserved. Unapproachable.
Yet the faint charm at the corner of her eyes gave her a dangerously alluring appeal.
She took a few steps.
“Hiss…”
Liu Ruyan frowned slightly, her steps clearly unsteady, her legs subconsciously not quite closing together.
Xia Feng quickly stepped forward to support her. Seeing her trying to act tough like this made him both amused and a little helpless.
“I’m telling you, Ruyan, you should just take the day off and rest at home.”
“Look at your condition. You can barely stand. How are you going to attend a meeting at the company?”
Hearing this, Liu Ruyan lifted her head and gave him a charming glare.
“Hmph, isn’t it all your fault?”
Her voice was soft, carrying a hint of complaint, but more than that, it was filled with sweetness.
“Like a brute. Not even mentioning last night, but even this morning… you really don’t know how to be gentle.”
Xia Feng rubbed his nose awkwardly and smiled.
Well… that really was his fault.
Once he had a taste, he couldn’t quite control himself.
“My fault, my fault,” Xia Feng admitted quickly, holding her waist gently. “Then let’s not go to the company, okay?”
“No!”
Liu Ruyan refused immediately.
“There’s a very important board meeting this afternoon. I have to be there.”
A workaholic was still a workaholic.
Xia Feng didn’t argue further. He could only act as her support, helping her out of the hotel room.
At the door, the hotel manager and a row of staff stood respectfully, barely daring to breathe.
Seeing them come out, the manager hurried forward and handed a black car key to Xia Feng.
“Mr. Xia, CEO Liu, the car is ready.”
Outside, the staff had already brought Liu Ruyan’s flashy red Maserati to the hotel entrance.
Xia Feng carefully helped her into the passenger seat and thoughtfully fastened her seatbelt before walking around to the driver’s side.
He started the engine, shifted gears, and the red sports car let out a low roar as it smoothly merged into traffic.
They didn’t speak along the way.
Soon, they arrived at the imposing skyscraper of the Liu Group.
Xia Feng parked the car and was about to get out to help her, but Liu Ruyan pressed his hand.
After resting for a while, she had recovered quite a bit.
“Husband.”
She suddenly called out sweetly.
Half of Xia Feng’s body went numb.
“I can go up myself. You don’t need to walk me in.”
She unfastened her seatbelt and turned to look at him, her eyes sparkling.
“Don’t you have work too? Take this car. It’ll save you from squeezing into the subway.”
“Remember to come pick me up after work tonight.”
Looking at her gentle, feminine demeanor, Xia Feng felt warmth fill his chest.
He felt like he was still dreaming.
In just one day, he had gone from being single to married. His best buddy had become his wife, and even his mode of transport had upgraded from walking to a Maserati.
This life felt like it had been launched by a rocket.
A little awkwardly, he tested the words, “Alright… then… wife, I’m heading to work?”
The word “wife” still felt unfamiliar on his tongue.
But the moment Liu Ruyan heard it, her eyes curved into crescent moons.
Her smile bloomed like a rose, dazzling enough to leave Xia Feng stunned.
She suddenly leaned over and kissed his cheek with a soft “mwah.”
Before he could react, she pushed open the car door, stepped out in her high heels, and walked elegantly into the company building under the astonished gazes of the employees.
Before entering, she turned back and blew him a flirtatious kiss.
Xia Feng sat in the car, touching his cheek, grinning foolishly for a while.
Only after Liu Ruyan disappeared into the elevator did he come back to his senses.
Looking at the trident logo on the steering wheel, Xia Feng took a deep breath.
A new life had begun.
He drove the multi-million yuan Maserati toward his small game company.
While waiting at a red light, Xia Feng suddenly remembered something and called out silently in his mind.
“System, are you there?”
[Yes. What instructions does the host have?]
A cold mechanical voice echoed directly in his mind.
Damn, it’s real!
Xia Feng’s heart trembled. The voice he vaguely heard upon waking that morning was not an illusion.
At the moment he opened his eyes, this so-called system had already bound itself to him.
He steadied himself and continued asking in his mind, “System, what functions do you have?”
[This system is called the “Great Love System.”]
[As long as the host performs acts of “great love,” you will earn system points.]
[Points can be used for draws. Rewards include money, skills, items, attribute points, and anything the host desires.]
[The host may silently say “Open Panel” to view personal information.]
Great Love System?
Acts of “great love”?
Xia Feng’s expression became a bit strange, but he still followed the instruction.
“Open Panel.”
Instantly, a blue virtual screen that only he could see appeared before his eyes.
[Host: Xia Feng]
[Age: 26]
[Height: 185 cm]
[Strength: 12 (average adult male: 10)]
[Constitution: 13 (average adult male: 10)]
[Endurance: 15 (average adult male: 10)]
[Speed: 11 (average adult male: 10)]
[Skills: Basic Game Development, Basic Combat]
[Points: 10]
Looking at his attributes, which were higher than average, Xia Feng nodded in satisfaction.
It seemed his years of working out had paid off, especially… his endurance.
Hehe.
Ruyan probably felt it deeply.
His gaze finally landed on the 10 points.
“System, are these 10 points a beginner reward?”
[No.]
The system’s voice remained cold.
[This system does not provide beginner rewards. These 10 points were obtained because the host completed the system’s underlying logic requirements.]
“…”
Xia Feng’s lips twitched.
He instantly understood.
Thinking back to last night and this morning with Liu Ruyan…
So this so-called “great love” meant that?
Xia Feng’s eyes lit up immediately.
So as long as he got closer with his wife more often, he could earn points, draw rewards, and become stronger?
There was such a good thing?!
For the sake of points, it seemed he would have to work even harder to embody the spirit of “great love” in the future!
Suppressing his excitement, he asked, “System, can I draw with 10 points?”
[Yes. 10 points can be used for one basic draw. Would you like to begin now?]
“Draw! Do it now!” Xia Feng said without hesitation in his mind.
[Command received. Initiating basic draw roulette…]
A colorful roulette wheel appeared before his eyes, filled with countless small sections labeled with various rewards.
The wheel spun rapidly, the pointer flickering.
[Starting draw!]
The pointer gradually slowed down and finally… stopped on a golden section.
[Ding! Congratulations, host. You have obtained…]
